ABSTRACT:
Mouth dissolving tablet by resolving earlier administration issues and extending patent life, mouth dissolving tablets have gained a significant market share. When Mouth Dissolving Tablets come into touch with saliva, they have the unusual ability to dissolve and release the medication quickly.1 MDTs are tablets that dissolve quickly in saliva when taken in the mouth, requiring no additional liquid and allowing for swallowing. Specifically, the European Pharmacopoeia used the term "Oro dispersible tablet" for MDTs. Other names for mouth disintegrating pills are melt-in-mouth tablet Orodispersible tablets, rapid dissolving/dispersing tablets, and quick melting tablets. The potential advantages of MDTs as an oral medication delivery method for a range of individuals with various illnesses and impairments are reviewed in this article. Mouth dissolving tablets were created to solve the problems with traditional dosage forms. They offer good hardness, dose homogeneity, and convenience of administration. They are the preferred dosage form for elderly, paediatric, and travel patients. More sophisticated oral drug delivery systems have long piqued the curiosity of researchers looking for ways to increase patients' compliance with their prescription regimens. Mouth-dispensing drug delivery systems (MDDDS) have taken the lead in the market by removing administration issues and prolonging the patent life.
